Anyone ever let their notifications pile up before finally seeing what they all are?

I just hit 400

 

 

[Rachael Foley 10,021]

Mazel tov.

[bollemanneke 4,321]

Can't afford to, I have e-mail notifications turned on.

[bruce marshall 1,968]

Only when they are from Shark and/or Fart

😎

[Jay 45,801]

500 now, I guess I should give up hope on keeping up with this

 

[Richard P 5,241]

No, and I can't stand that dark theme either!

[Jay 45,801]

How come?

[Richard P 5,241]

I find it harder on the eyes, and has a slight Filmtracks effect with light font on dark background.

 

And I just find notifications useful to see where I've been quoted and where conversations are progressing.

[Disco Stu 15,517]

I also hate dark mode and am weirded out by the aggressiveness of those who like it.

[Jay 45,801]

Agressiveness?

[Disco Stu 15,517]

There's a contingent of annoying people that feel the need to pretend like light mode is some kind of moral atrocity that they can't tolerate other people preferring.  Several frequent this forum.

[Jay 45,801]

Huh, can't say I've ever encountered anything like that >shrug<

You are asked to state which of the emergency services you require.

 

[mrbellamy 8,062]

We need a poll to guess if it'll continue into the thousands or freeze at 999+

[JoeinAR 1,957]

[Brónach 1,328]

holy shit there's a dark mode

[Pieter Boelen 1,032]

To answer the thread title:

I do. Kind-of HAVE to.

I have a life outside JWFan as well.

And the notifications here pile up with 10 per second; or something like that!

How DO you fine lads and lasses here manage to keep up with it all???

I turned off notifications for PMs and I don't "follow" any threads, so the only notifications I get are for reactions and quotes

I never started "following" any threads either.

Thinking I may have the follow yer example though and find that PM notification to switch off too.

The number of emails I get tends to be... completely overwhelming.

No matter HOW good all the posts actually are.

[Jay 45,801]

200 to go!

 

[Bespin Copilot 10,731]

@Jay@Jay@Jay Does this add three more?

[Jay 45,801]

No just 1

[Bespin Copilot 10,731]

I could have done more, but I have a life, sorry!

[Jay 45,801]

Blew past 900 overnight

 

1000 will come sometime soon

[Bespin Copilot 10,731]

@Jay BIIING!!!

[Jay 45,801]

Woke up this morning and learned it does display 4 digits

 

[Holko 12,019]

But does it display 5?

[Jay 45,801]

I don't even know yet if it will keep counting beyond 1000 or stops there!

here you go

[Jay 45,801]

Yup says 1001 now

 

Do I go for 10,000 or finally click and then go back to actually seeing what my notifications are again?

[mrbellamy 8,062]

Obviously you just let it ride

[Jay 45,801]

it's at 1091 now, it'll be a long time to get to 5 digits!

[Glóin the Dark 1,846]

I'm not sure I've had 1000 notifications the whole time I've been registered here, let alone in a few weeks.

 

I also hate dark mode!

Crossed 1300 today

[Jay 45,801]

Woops!  I just accidentally clicked on the notification bubble, and now its completely gone.  It was at 1400something

 

Oh well

[Bilbo 4,277]

This is second only to losing the great library of Alexandria in terms of a loss to human knowledge 

[mstrox 7,339]

NOOOOOOOOO

[Jay 45,801]

Well it's at 2 now

[Naïve Old Fart 12,881]

I got up to 107, and then something took over.

[Jay 45,801]

Back up to a bubble of 1000 now

[Jay 45,801]

OK, back up to 1500 now.  Let's see if I can get to 10k without accidentally clicking it!

[Jay 45,801]

So late this week I passed 1700, I forget exactly how high it got, but it was maybe between 1710 and 1720 or something. 

 

This morning I noticed it was down to 1694. So someone had been going back and removing their Reactions from posts of mine. I wonder what would drive someone to spend the time and effort to do that? 

[mstrox 7,339]

Wonder if somebody is Bloodboaling - going through their activity feed and undoing everything 

 

I’ve been experiencing The Jay Life in miniature.  I don’t personally use Facebook anymore but I have to keep my account open because I manage the school PTO’s page.  Every few days they send me an email with how many notifications I’ve missed.  Not quite to 1700 yet but I have aspirations.
